Blastocyst Culture
Helping embryos grow for better IVF success.
At Aakash Fertility Centre, we use Blastocyst Culture in our IVF programs. This means we let embryos grow in the lab until Day 5 or 6 before transfer. This helps embryologists pick the embryos most likely to implant and succeed.
Blastocyst Culture
What Is Blastocyst Culture?
Blastocyst Culture lets fertilized embryos develop in the lab until the blastocyst stage, usually Day 5 or 6. This longer growth period allows doctors to select the healthiest embryos, improving the chances of pregnancy.
How It Works
- Fertilization – Eggs are fertilized using IVF or ICSI.
- Embryo Culture – Embryos grow in a controlled incubator.
- Development Monitoring – Embryos are tracked as they progress through stages like morula and blastocyst.
- Embryo Selection – Only embryos that reach the blastocyst stage are chosen for transfer.
Benefits
- Higher Implantation Rates – Blastocyst-stage embryos have a better chance to implant.
- Better Selection – Embryologists can pick the most viable embryos.
- Lower Multiple Pregnancy Risk – Single embryo transfer becomes safer.
- Improved Pregnancy Outcomes – Studies show higher pregnancy rates with blastocyst transfer.
Who Can Benefit?
AI-Based Embryo Selection is especially helpful for:
- Patients with previous IVF failures – Helps understand embryo development better.
- Women of advanced maternal age – Shows higher ongoing pregnancy rates and lower miscarriage risk.
- Couples aiming for single embryo transfer – Reduces multiple pregnancy chances.
- Cardiology – Detailed heart imaging.
- Musculoskeletal – Study joints, muscles, and tendons.
Clinical Outcomes
- Blastocyst culture allows selection of the strongest embryos, leading to higher pregnancy rates and better IVF success.
